“Interbike 2013 Cool Bike Gear - The cardo BK-1 is a Bluetooth communication and entertainment system for cyclists that is based on their motorcycle helmet communication system. It is lightweight, waterproof and dustproof, will fit virtually all bicycle helmets and is equipped with hovering speakers and omni-directional noise-cancelling microphone.“

"cardo BK- 1 is the first Bluetooth communication and entertainment system for cyclists that allows intercom communication between 5 people who use the device and connected to a Bluetooth enabled mobile phone or MP3 player and GPS”

“.... An impressive good filtering of wind noise. Here the manufacturer did a great job in each of its systems, even at higher speeds from 160 kilometers and more, nearly no noise will be trans-mitted. In this point we all agree: there is nothing comparable in the market.”

“Inside Maria’s helmet were earphones and a microphone that were part of a new Bluetooth device called a cardo BK-1 that made talking to Maria from the follow vehicle as easy as if she was sitting in the seat next to us.“

“Well, trust me : it is C-O-O-L! (the scala rider G9) Not only can you tease your friend while riding and have a lot of fun, but also when it comes to safety the contribution of this system is critical.”

“The biggest advantages of the scala rider G9 are: Excellent sound quality, both for voice and music. Voice commands for each function. Very high volume. Easy to toggle with up to 8 other scala riders by simply saying the name of the buddy with whom you want to talk to.”

"In my test, the sound was clear and two riders never lost contact…. devices like the scala rider Q3 can ease worries about when to turn, where your co-riders are or how you can be reached in an emergency".

“There is a learning curve when using any Bluetooth communicator, and complexity increases as more devices are paired to it but Cardo has done a good job of ensuring that scala rider communicators are user-friendly. The instruction manual is concise and easy to follow, and voice-guided menus and spoken status announcements minimize confusion.”
